Better Book Titles
« on: March 01, 2011, 09:06:33 PM »
For a bit of a laugh, "better" book titles: http://betterbooktitles.com/

A sample (can you guess what they are? :P)

Mark Twain: One of my Best Friends is Black

Edith Wharton: Emotions Are For Poor People

Eric Carle: Eat Until You Feel Pretty

Enjoy!  :)

I guessed the first two, but I don't know who Eric Carle is!
